I have a bunch of bearing cups. Can you digitally measure the thickness that you need and I will see if I have one that would work for you.
 
Thanks anyway, I have the OG bearing cups but some Monark's needed a shim to fit some frames especially the 5 bar & twin bar/speedster. 2 yrs and haven't found og shims, anyone parting out a old girls 4 bar with shims?

Why not put a piece of pipe that fits snug around the cups that fits the frame tube tight & forget the shims? I mean ultimately you can grind & file it to fit tight. Using worn shims from another bike of the same design will ultimately yield the same problem if your actual head tube & frame are worn that badly
 
I have made shims and they work fine for now. most of the time it's not that they are worn out it's people ( kids ) just didn't bother to put them back in and that's where the excess wear on the frame comes in, from no shims so would still would like to find a OG set to put in and never have to worry about it again, I will never put enough miles or abuse on them to where them out.
